Upon entry there is a small section of jewelry you can purchase but most of the items are the supplies and tools you need to make your own designs. They are a small business and I noticed the BBB recommendation sign there so you know you are getting quality. I had the opportunity to meet the owner Joanne and she told me when the next beading class would be. For anyone interested it would be on March 21 from 6-8. Cost is $27.00. Staff is there to answer any questions yo may have. I was especially interested in the pearl strands. They carry everything including high quality if you are willing to indulge. They also sell books for beading. One of the things that caught my eye was cute glass animals. I learned they were gifts and not for sale but owner may change her mind in the summer. They have a wonderful selection to choose from as well as the needed strings, wiring, and snippers to do your work. The creativity is up to you! Worth a look regardless!

If you do not already know, Michael's store sells a large selection of craft supplies, including…read morebeads, fabric, ribbon, paint, paper, artificial flowers, yarn, frames, craft machines, party supplies, home décor, etcetera. I recently stopped in to browse craft supplies for a project for a class that I am taking. I found many options for materials. Some of the prices were not the cheapest, but some other products were on sale or clearance. As I walked around the store, no employees said hello or asked me if I needed assistance. When I went to the checkout, no customers were ahead of me in line. The cashier said hello, correctly rung up my items, and told me to have a good day. This store is located in a shopping center that had plenty of parking spaces.

Staff was not helpful. Customer service is mediocre. I will not return to this store.read more

I left 2 voicemails telling them how upset I am. I have not heard yet. I also asked next door and was told they work whatever hours they want. Nice way to run a business. I'm all for small business but since I have to drive 1 hour round trip this was a joke. Also the sign on their door says they are open Sundays 12-4. I would love to hear back from these owners what their excuse is. If I worked like this I'm sure I wouldn't have a job anymore.

I mean sure you can pay $8 to get a battery changed elsewhere but this place does an actual pressure test and I've never gotten a watch back that looks like somebody stabbed it, unlike other places. I've had a rings sized up and down for my family and every time we get them back they look brand new - no thinned out shanks or visible lines. I have never had a bad experience in the last 10 years of coming here. Every employee has been super nice and they know their biz. Nothing but positive experiences

When I had two long crystal necklaces break in the same way, the company was going to stand by their replacement warranty, but the cost associated with doing so was high. I live in the South Hills but took advantage of my next available day to bring these out to Fast-Fix. The gentleman helping me took a look, assessed the breaks (slightly different in each necklace; one had to lose one crystal which he returned to me) and said putting them back together would take just a moment and I could wait. In under five minutes he had repaired both of them and assessed them for any impending breaks I was not aware of. He then said there was no charge, and that I could pay next time as this could easily happen again. Amazing knowledge, skill and service. Don't hesitate to visit with your jewelry repair needs!

The Staff here at Blicks arts is friendly knowledgeable & insightful. I came across a good chunk of items weather in brand name or items themselves that are not stocked at Michaels or Hobby Lobby.   I've known friends in the past who shopped known places before discovering this art store. Once they shopped here they swore up and down that this is their first stop for painting their personal Picasso or that picture they hang in coffee shops & others places they'd love to sell.    After looking around here with my sis and spending a little time here. I would recommend any artists starting out, noivce or professional to shop here for their project needs.

There are some other places that sell their stuff, but this is the only actual full store in Pa. Their biggest seller is their bangles, although they do have rings, necklaces, and earrings I believe, as well as some leather bags, candles, and scarves. I like this place... I buy stuff here for my mom/sister/friends and they always love it. I'll usually end up wanting to buy like six or seven different things, so it will add up quickly, but for the most part, their stuff is pretty affordable, and I like that it is hand made in the US. The staff is always very welcoming and willing to help you with suggestions on what to pair together, or answer any other questions for you.
